The Easton Police Department Special Response Unit and vice narcotics unit raided a home this morning at 1125 Ferry St., but the alleged heroin dealer wasn't there, police said.

Arrest teams of city police spread out, searched for and found Monet Buggs, 19, who was being charged this morning with delivery of heroin, police said. She was picked up about 7:45 near Centre Square in the city, police said.

Buggs and others were selling drugs out of the home when the people who lived there were away during the day, police said. The renters weren't aware of the drug dealing, police said.

Buggs was "an associate" of one of the children who lived in the home, police Lt. Matthew Gerould said.
